[15:27:22] Duesentrieb_: Most browsers will rewrite non-ASCII chars to %xx sequences for you (at least in the query string) [15:28:05] RoanKattouw: i'm aware of that. but there's no reason to use non-ascii chars in the interwiki table. [15:28:06] Duesentrieb_, you'd prefer VARCHAR(255)? URLs can be longer than 255 characters. [15:28:07] using blobs for urls seems silly. [15:28:20] Simetrical: mediumtext? [15:28:28] Duesentrieb_, we use blobs for everything. char does stuff like case-folding, depending on collation. [15:28:44] Simetrical: the point is: the interwiki table is the one bit of the database that *needs* to be edited manually by people. [15:28:44] Plus, we don't like char because it doesn't exist in MySQL 4.0, effectively. :) [15:28:49] people use phpmyadmin for it [15:28:56] which refuses to edit blobs [15:29:07] Well, that's silly of it.

[15:29:22] it may be annoying, but it's actually the right thing to do. [15:29:33] Blobs can contain arbitrary content, which may include text. [15:29:43] In the cases where it does contain text, no reason it can't be edited as such. [15:29:57] Simetrical: Be careful with "if it looks like" stuff. There's an IE XSS exploit based on similar reasoning ;) [15:30:06] RoanKattouw, nothing's being executed here, that logic is irrelevant. [15:30:18] Simetrical: whatever. i disagree, but it's a mute point. [15:30:18] Everything in the Unix world does heuristic checks for whether files are binary/text.

[17:51:26] OJ_Timsen, CSS. [17:51:37] is there maybe a extension which allows me the easy way? [17:51:53] for example to give pages within a specific category a specific colored border [17:54:47] OJ_Timsen, you need to use CSS. The rules used on mediawiki.org are the two blocks beginning ".ns-12" here, near the top: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css [17:55:23] .ns-12 affects all pages in namespace 12, which on MediaWiki.org is the Help: namespace. [17:55:32] I use subpages on the Category namespace to add additional info for the category. But those subpages are listed on Special:UnusedCategories. Isn't there a way to make them appear as used when they're linked to? Something like $wgCountCategorizedImagesAsUsed [17:55:32] so i found a workaround. one regex for creating a kind of tag around a space, and with a second regex delte the tags, so the space is left: {{#regex:{{#regex: abc def |/\ \;/|<%4&6jk> <%4&6jk>}} |/\<\%4\&6jk\>/|}} [17:56:00] kewl Simetrical, I will take a closer look! [17:57:57] Subfader, pages in the Category: namespace are intended to represent categories. You may want to use Category talk:, Template:, or some other namespace for storing the extra info. [17:58:20] I guessed so and it's the easiest workaround. [17:59:48] while talking about namespaces: Is there a way to remove ceratin default namespaces? I really don't need User:Talk (using PM system) or Project:Talk. Esp User:Talk creates confusion with those [discussion] links. [18:02:45] Subfader, no, that's not really supported. You could hide the tabs in various ways, though, like with CSS. [18:03:09] @Simetrical, how can I find out the namespaces my wiki is using? [18:04:02] *Simetrical goes to school [18:04:02] ok thanks.

[19:09:34] 6.10.x is ... not a version of MediaWiki. [19:09:39] do I just leave the space? and it will translate to _ on its own? [19:09:53] Change the underscore to a space and see if that helps.

[19:25:05] I haven't heard about it [19:31:25] Very silent here [19:32:59] Question, I'm the "leader" of our wiki. Version is 1.11.0, I want to update to 1.13.2. I have all the access required, but I am a total and utter noob concerning php/MySQL, and although it is documented very thouroughly, I'm in fear of screwing the whole process up. [19:33:30] Is there any "I'm a total noob and want to update my wiki" guide, or a user that might have some handy tips? [19:34:01] Sidearm: Backup first. :-) [19:34:02] !backup [19:34:02] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki [19:34:09] Already did [19:34:10] Twice [19:34:26] !upgrade [19:34:26] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading [19:34:28] I've read those guides [19:35:10] All right. The Manual:Upgrading page is probably the simplest explanation. [19:35:31] No matter the way you update, it's usually pretty easy. [19:35:43] Well [19:35:52] When saying I'm a php/MySQL noob [19:35:53] I mean that I first set my eyes on any coding of those sorts today. [19:36:38] Simply put, sentences such as: "If using a tarball package, decompress the file on the server where the old version of mediawiki is running." already mean to me: "I have to find out how to install something on the server."

[19:56:16] jeroen-: short answer is you can't, as there is no global variable for it or object containing it (anymore), and javascript can't tell you what the remote server sees as your IP (even if your browser knows it) [19:56:29] long answer is... there is a trick: Special:Mypage [19:56:51] but that requires an ajax call [19:57:03] which would be very impractical for every page view [19:57:21] 03demon * r43683 10/trunk/phase3/ (includes/ImagePage.php languages/messages/MessagesEn.php): (bug 2077) Info on how to use external editor is vague.
